Chapter 22: Gifts

Of course Ye Qing didn't live in the cave.Although the jade ghost is really nice to him, he can't afford to experience his life in the cave.After the Jade Ghost stole treasures for Ye Qing and left, Ye Qing took a rest and returned to Ye Mansion.

Two days later, an exquisite box was placed on the table in Ye Qing's study.No one in the Ye Mansion saw anyone coming in, and the doors, windows, tables and chairs did not show any signs of movement, this thing seemed to be born out of thin air.Seeing Ye Qing, she gasped in shock.Why is there such an extraordinary person in this world?This An Suiyu is just like a ghost!

Ye Qing took a few quick steps and opened the box.The sapphire is thin, warm and smooth, the best quality jade, and the best workmanship.When lighting the lamp, in the not-so-bright study room, some fluorescent light was faintly reflected.A pair of small and exquisite cups, even a layman like Ye Qing, finds them so beautiful that they can't take their eyes off.This is indeed a good thing that everyone in the world wants to keep for themselves - Qingyu Liulizun.Ye Qing unconsciously stretched out his hand to touch it, but before he touched the wall of the bottle, he suddenly found that there was a letter in the box, presumably it was given to him by Jade Ghost.

Ye Qing carefully dragged out the jade bottle, took out the letter from the bottom of the box, shook it open, and found that the ghostly talisman that even dogs would not eat should really come from the hand of the jade ghost.

Ye Qing recognized it for a long time, and finally understood the content of the letter after stumbling:

This baby came from the Song family.They only knew that it was the Jade Ghost who stole the item, but they never knew that it had arrived at Ye Mansion.As long as you hide it well, you'll be fine.Besides, if you dare to tell others about my young master, it's no wonder that you will be strangers in the world since then!

"It's really a ghost with careful thought." Ye Qing looked at it, smiled lightly, and burned the letter paper to ashes with a candle.

Ye Qing stretched out his hand and closed the box, half of the wall of the study was immediately dimmed.He stroked the delicate box with hidden textures, feeling mixed feelings.If my father is willing to accept this thing, it might be the last thing I can give, right?

These few days, Ye Cang was so busy that he followed the housekeeper to make a fuss about his father's birthday.Invitations, dishes, how to receive, and how to talk to guests.Fortunately, Ye Cang has always been eloquent, otherwise, with Ye Qing's tepid temper, he really couldn't do this job.

On the day of his birthday, Ye Qing wore a long dress that fit the crab shell green, and brought Ah Wu, who was holding the exquisite box, to the front hall early.Ye Cang was looking for visitors, but when he saw Ye Qing, he immediately handed over all the matters in hand to Old Wu, and rushed to Ye Qing by himself: "Have you brought the gift yet?"

"Of course I did."

"What is what? Let me take a look first?" Ye Cang stretched out his head and looked straight at Ah Wu.

"You don't need to read it, father will definitely be satisfied." Ye Qing smiled complacently.

"So sure?" Ye Cang raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah." Ye Qing nodded, and Ah Wu behind him had already hugged the box to his chest, for fear that Ye Cang or someone else would touch it.

"Okay, okay, Ah Wu, are you tired of hugging like this? Is it okay if I don't look at it?" Ye Cang shook his hands, turned his head and said, "I'm busy."

Ye Qing looked at his younger brother's back and couldn't help laughing.Ah Wu leaned over and asked softly, "Would your father really like it?"

"……probably."

"Don't say anything else..." Ah Wu muttered, then glanced at Ye Qing, and immediately became quiet, "I shut up."

What happened after that is not worth talking about.Wealthy families always hold banquets with the utmost extravagance, and of course guests present gifts with great care. Although Master Ye Ye Lingyun is full of smiles, he is still young and has a pleasant demeanor.

According to what Ye Cang said, what he gave was a white jade cloud pattern Ruyi, and what Ye Tao gave was a sandalwood decoration that he found from nowhere.Of course, the treasures were all properly placed in the brocade box, and Ye Qing's pair of sapphire glazed statues were recorded in the account together with other objects and stored in the side hall.

When a big family holds a banquet, there are so many people toast to their father.Ye Cang and Ye Tao were also very good at pleasing their father. Ye Qingming stood up and said a scene, and then did nothing else.Everyone ate heartily, but no one cared about the quietness of the second son of the Ye family.

Ye Qing drank some thin wine, put his chopsticks aside, still lost his appetite.To be honest, it was much better to hide in the noise than expose him to the eternal awkward silence between him and his father.For example, comparing this banquet with the family banquet last time, he would rather have a few more such big banquets that were not noticed by others.

His father sat a little far away from him, and his father was constantly chatting with people, laughing and responding.Although Ye Qing knew that the smile was just a polite response, but it was much more comfortable than looking cold at himself.Some people are drunk, some are laughing wildly, some are whispering, some are reciting aloud, Ye Qing can clearly see the happiness in front of him, although none of these happiness will involve him, and none of them will belong to him.The name of the second son of the Ye family...has long since ceased to be so resounding.The destiny is limited, all happiness and unhappiness, even the days in this mansion, for Ye Qing, can be counted down.

In Ye Qing's clear eyes, there was still some loneliness after all.
